The three hours visit was reportedly convivial as the duo with other guests threw banters and discussed plans towards Obasanjo 80th birthday celebrations.
“If I still hold any grudges against you, I won’t have allowed you to come into my house. But all those are past things, and I am convinced that you have learnt your lesson’, Obasanjo told Daniel.
Similarly, Daniel expressed appreciation to Obasanjo for having change of heart, pointing out that he didn’t mean any harm against him and that he has always held him in very high esteem as the father of the nation and father of all.
He said he was comfortable to have returned into fatherly arm of Obasanjo, with assurance that he remains his son comes rain come, comes shines.
